There are three things silently draining your energy this week — and they have nothing to do with your schedule.

They’re happening inside your nervous system.

And once you learn to spot them, you can interrupt them in seconds.

Holiday overwhelm isn’t random.

It’s patterned.

In today’s episode, we’re breaking down the exact mechanisms behind each pattern, why they intensify during the holidays, and how to use simple, science-backed somatic interrupters to reclaim your capacity in real time.

✨ Quick reminder before we dive in:
Honor Your Energy — my 7-Day Nervous System + Boundaries Reset — is officially open for enrollment this week only.

If you’re tired of feeling maxed out or living at the edge of burnout, this reset will help you regulate your system quickly and stop leaking energy in your everyday life.

Inside this episode, you’ll learn:

✔️ The neuroscience behind invisible labor

How hypervigilance, predictive modeling, and mirror neurons pull you into cognitive overload long before you feel overwhelmed — and why shaking + heel drops instantly discharge sympathetic activation.

✔️ Why emotional caretaking feels automatic

How empathy circuitry, emotional fusion, and the fawn response activate during family gatherings… and the 30-second somatic reset that restores your emotional boundaries on the spot.

✔️ What causes boundary collapse under pressure

Why your brain predicts “no” as a threat, how stress hijacks executive function, and how to use the micro-pause + physiological sigh to access choice instead of reflex.

✔️ How holiday stress reduces your window of tolerance

A deeper look at allostatic load, anticipatory stress, and why your bandwidth shrinks even when you’re technically “off.”

✔️ Three practical somatic interrupters you can use anywhere

Each tool is fast, discreet, and physiology-backed — perfect for crowded kitchens, emotional conversations, and overstimulated evenings.
